Please fire me. I work at a Subway. Four young children, none of them any older than seven, walked in and placed their orders for their kids meals, complete with toy bags, cookies, and milk. Their total came to about twenty dollars for the four kids meals altogether. That’s when grandma (presumably) wheeled in on her electric scooter, swiped her credit card, snatched up her receipt, and left. Not five minutes later did she scoot back in at high speed, hit the counter, and start yelling at me at the cost of four kids meals.

Now, our register is a POS system where you punch in the items and the computer knows the prices. I cannot override prices, as I’m not a manager, therefore, I don’t know the code to do so. The woman then proceeds to tell me that I take advantage of young children, and that my parents have raised me wrong and that my “ass needs to be whipped raw.” One of the managers offers to void her purchase to get her money back. The woman then demands cash back. We remind her that she paid with a card and cannot get paper money back. She then proceeds to hit our counter with her scooter, proceeding to call me a thief and that my parents were probably thieves, too. I responded with “Maybe your children should not have been sent to buy their own food just yet.” My manager voided her purchase, then told me that I was not allowed to defend myself in a customer complaint. She then made me hammer out the dents the woman made in our metal counter.

Please fire me. Today a lady came to the counter and wanted to buy a Big Mac. When I told her we didn’t have those, she asked for a Whopper instead. Again, I told her we didn’t have those either and she got mad at me and walked away. I work at KFC.

Please fire me. I work in a pizza place and recently we’ve gotten a waterbug infestation. My boss promised four times he’d call in an exterminator and never has, now when we mention it he just gets defensive and shakes his head like we’re over reacting. Oh you know i’m sorry that I don’t like sweeping up dead bugs before every shift, finding live ones in the boxes and creeping out from under all the furniture and tables in front of customers. Maybe it’s weird that seeing a goddamn roach the length of my ring finger on the CEILING creeps me out and you know how much I love practicing my apology speech for when a customer notices, or when they find a bug in their pizza. How do you run a business like this?

Please fire me. I work in a hotel in Kansas and the other day we had two women from Canada stay with us. We were sold out and I was working alone. They called every 10 minutes from their room to have me come up and explain how the TV, phone, ect. works. They would apologize and say “We’re just so far from home.”

I know there are televisions and telephones in Canada. I do not know if they were honestly that technologically deprived or just fucking with me.

Please fire me. My coworkers are always asking me if guys they think are cute are gay. If they are having a hard time with their boyfriends/can’t get a date, they ask me if I can give them a pass to be a lesbian for a while. I’m out and proud to be bisexual, but I am so tired of everyone in this place making “harmless” jokes about sexuality to “make me feel like I belong”!

Please fire me. I work in a boarding facility and the other day had this one lady bring her dog in for a bath. When the dog was done and the owner came in to get her, she immediately picked up the dog upside down in her arms, pressed her face to the dog’s belly, and stated quickly that the dog smelled like pee. She then proceeded to make me and the receptionist smell as well to confirm. The dog did not smell. But she made such a fuss that we gave her the bath for free, and she walked out with the dog unleashed, still upside down in her arms.
